Because he trains well. Just like Russell. Hope it's not true that Savelio is on his way back to Saints. Would be great to have the young ex-Newman trio at the heart of the Warrington attack under a new coach with fresh ideas and different man-management. But despite what my heart says, my head knows Smith and Agar will be in charge for many more mediocre seasons whilst we watch less-expensive squads win trophies with other coaches. Once I accept that fact I feel less anxious and ready for what lies ahead.

It's ok, the shock of 2 points snapped me out of it.

| Quote: Winslade's Offload "Prior to this match I hadn't seen our last three matches, but I thought Dagger played really well. He caught all the high balls and seemed to field most of the kick offs as well. He backed up one good break ( Gidley ?) when few of our team did any backing up at all, and then there was that scorching run from our 20 metres through the Catalan defence I thought at one point he would go all the way, but he ran out of steam, although even then he got the ball away. At the moment he will be getting away with a few plays because teams are unfamiliar with his moves, plus under-estimating his ability, but even so he looks pretty good to me.
In contrast Hughes made Cromwell's statue look dynamic and seems to have inherited the right foot step from Rhys - on every single play that he makes. He really needs to have a time out.
So for me, give Dagger a skull cap and leave him at FB with Ratchford at centre for the Wakey game.'"
Don't deny that dagger did ok, however my recollection of his performance is that he dropped a high ball in the second half. At the end of his run when he should of scored was a brain fart and nothing to do with him
Running out of gas

| It's the third game I've watched Dagger, he looked lightweight against Cas, he was anonymous on the wing last week, but today was his best game, his couple of breaks caught the eye but his performance was error strewn, he did drop 2 or 3 but they went backwards so got away with it, wayward passes & he got caught out with the Myler try in particular
He does look like a talent though & has all the raw materials, like Charlie eluded to he still has the element of surprise on his side & the one thing that stood out for me is he seems a brave lad in the tackle & going for the high balls
Jack Hughes this year has not been the same player obviously but today I thought he defended better & his error count was down but he offered very little in attack, he is normally a very solid 2nd rower but he is a poor option at centre

| Had we not has so many injuries I don't think dagger would have been expected to start so many games so has done well considering, I think he has a season nor two before can realistically challenge for ratchfords spot at full back.
Hughes his style of play in the second row for me does. It make for a good idea at centre just sometimes you can get a feeling if a second row could play at centre and develop currie could I don't think it's for Hughes but have limited options with pomeroy Evans and livett out

I'd say Savelio is long gone, we've offered him a ty 1 year deal and Saints have offered him a 3 year deal. Leeds and castleford are also rumoured to be interested. No way he will stay with this Shipwreck and i don't blame him. A one year deal is e

| Jullien has spent much of his career at centre.
Hughes is..hugely, out of form. It should have made sense.

| Andre agent was at Wire today. Probably to formally finalise his move away a permission to release it. TS told AS he could look for a new club months ago.
(Tongue in cheek)...it now paves the way for Kerion Cunningham to take over at Wire!

Well I think Dagger's only 18 so no surprise if he's a bit lightweight. He made no more mistakes than many of our seasoned pros have been doing all year.

| Seems strange Saints would offer a 3 year deal to player they shipped out because of "issues".

Interesting to see that his contribution improves when his agent is around talking contracts for next season....
Nah, probably just a coincidence.
